Even the signature match unreliable. They steam open the mail... and replace the ballot! We need chemical envelopes to react with steam to void envelopes..
We need to do away with mail-in voting altogether. Collect military ballots on military bases in person, but no more mail-in crap. Too many opportunities for fraud.
Also, if we've found that voting machines have been "weaponized" then I vote that the Nat'l Guard assumes ownership and oversight of the process/use from this point forward.
(Admittedly, since states control their own elections and I believe the NG is federal (right? we don't have independent state NGs?) then this just wouldn't be a viable option.)
The massive issue here in this election that we perhaps have not seen or have not seen (perhaps) on this scale, previously, is AI Fake Voters.
For an AI, cranking out hundreds of thousands of fake pictures with fake names and fake addresses and fake fingerprints and fake signatures... that's not difficult work.
What we saw in this election was hundreds of thousands, and perhaps even millions, of fake people cast fake votes.
And then in addition the way that the votes are tallied is so prone to fraud one should actually assume that, in effect, no American's vote was actually counted. That, potentially, all of the votes are fake. Or at a minimum 5-10% of the votes were completely synthetic. Just numbers on a spreadsheet....
